Brilliant shot Philip. He looks like he is heading for a crash landing rather than on a feeder :smile: :wavey:

That's a cracker. A great mid-air pose and the wing blur is spot on.

To get a shot like this in the first place is fantastic. To get it with a perfect catchlight in the eye is just showing off! Love it.

Great flight shot and a common species too - good stuff.

A sharp image from a Canon 1D3? Surely not! :rolleyes:

Cheers,
Chris
